Large deviations of the exit measure through a characteristic boundary for a Poisson driven SDE

Let O be the basin of attraction of a given equilibrium of a dynamical system, whose solution is the law of large numbers limit of the solution of a Poissonian SDE as the size of the population tends to +∞. We consider the law of the exit point from O of that Poissonian SDE. We adapt the approach of Day [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 147 (1990) 134–153] who studied the same problem for an ODE with a small Brownian perturbation. For that purpose, we will use the large deviations principle for the Poissonian SDE reflected at the boundary of O, studied in our recent work Pardoux and Samegni [Stoch. Anal. Appl. 37 (2019) 836–864]. The main motivation of this work is the extension of the results concerning the time of exit from the set O established in Kratz and Pardoux [Vol. 2215 of Lecture Notes in Math.. Springer (2018) 221–327] and Pardoux and Samegni [J. Appl. Probab. 54 (2017) 905–920] to unbounded open sets O. This is done in sections 4.2.5 and 4.2.7 of Britton and Pardoux [Vol. 2255 of Lecture Notes in Math. Springer (2019) 1–120], see also The SIR model with demography subsection below.

An Application of the Backbone Decomposition to Supercritical Super-Brownian Motion with a Barrier

We analyse the behaviour of supercritical super-Brownian motion with a barrier through the pathwise backbone embedding of Berestycki, Kyprianou and Murillo-Salas (2011). In particular, by considering existing results for branching Brownian motion due to Harris and Kyprianou (2006) and Maillard (2011), we obtain, with relative ease, conclusions regarding the growth in the right-most point in the support, analytical properties of the associated one-sided Fisher-Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piscounov wave equation, as well as the distribution of mass on the exit measure associated with the barrier.
